Automation and Controls

LSI has a large array of skills and experience to help companies address their application needs.

Our culture of ownership drives employees to make decisions that are in the best interest of our customers. Software and hardware systems are designed with the operator and maintenance technicians in mind, and our goal is to deliver systems that are proven, accepted, and maintainable by the plant.

We identify our customers’ processes in order to deliver the right end design suitable to their needs and recognize systems are most successful when designed with the end process in mind.

We also recognize the importance of the hardware designs and software control strategies to be closely coordinated.

LSI is well versed with a wide variety of manufacturing industries and the majority of control system manufacturers and field instrument applications.

Our team of technical professionals has broad experience and a diverse application background and includes several professional engineers. We have degreed electrical, process, chemical, and computer engineering employees with years of experience in power and control system design.

We can augment your existing staff, implement minor upgrades or changes, or perform large projects.

Our engineers have implemented projects ranging in size from just a few points to over 20,000 point systems. LSI’s experience also spans from Process through Packaging.
